Предисловие
Предлагаемое учебное пособие - The Heinemann ELT English Grammar - предназначено для лиц, изу-
чающих английский язык. Цель пособия состоит в том, чтобы помочь изучающим овладеть грамматикой
и использовать ее на практике. Главным образом, пособие рассчитано на тех, кто работает самостоятель-
но. Однако его материалы могут использоваться и для работы под руководством преподавателя. Пособие
рассчитано для лиц, имеющих средний уровень подготовки по английскому языку. Вместе с тем его
можно с успехом использовать и на продвинутом этапе обучения для повторения и закрепления изучен-
ного материала.
ОБЪЯСНЕНИЕ
Грамматические пояснения изложены в простой и доступной форме. В общем используется английский
язык повседневного обихода. Хотя, где это необходимо, используются отдельные грамматические тер-
мины (например, adjective - имя прилагательное, noun - имя существительное, subject - подлежащее).
Эти термины объясняются в Глоссарии (Glossary) на страницах 324 - 327.
СТРУКТУРА ПОСОБИЯ
Пособие состоит из 190 разделов. Как правило, каждый раздел посвящен одной из грамматических тем
(например, the present continuous - настоящее длительное время, will или артикли a, an и the). Раздел
начинается с объяснений и примеров, после чего следует одно или несколько упражнений.
Кроме того, в некоторых разделах делается сравнение грамматического материала с материалом,
изложенным в предыдущих разделах (например, в разделе 2 сравнивается the present continuous (настоя-
щее длительное время) и present simple (настоящее простое время).
В обзорных разделах объединяются и отрабатываются на практике некоторые материалы предыдущих
разделов (например, в разделе 28 оттренировываются the present - настоящие и past tenses - прошедшие
времена). В этих разделах содержатся лишь упражнения и отсутствуют объяснения.
Некоторые разделы (например, 35 и 67) носят лишь справочный характер и не содержат упражнений. На
страницах 294 - 322 помещены 88 учебно-контрольных тестов. Они предназначены для проверки степе-
ни овладения грамматическим материалом пособия. Тесты можно использовать для выявления отдель-
ных проблем, поскольку каждый из них ориентирован на определенную область грамматики.
На страницах III - V содержится Оглавление (Contents).
На страницах 328-335 помещен Алфавитный указатель (Index), который приводит подробный перечень
грамматических структур (например, articles - артикли, present continuous - настоящее длительное время)
и ключевых слов (например, a/an, enough). Здесь также помещены рубрики, касающиеся того, как ис-
пользуется язык для выражения, например, возможности, долженствования.
В квадратных скобках [ ] иногда приводятся переводы некоторых примеров, используемых как иллюст-
ративный материал.
Ответы к упражнениям размещены на страницах 336 - 348, а ответы к тестам - на страницах 348 - 353.
В Приложении на странице 323 приведены некоторые сведения об американском варианте английского
языка.
ИСПОЛЬЗОВАНИЕ ПОСОБИЯ В КАЧЕСТВЕ САМОУЧИТЕЛЯ
Найдите желаемую тему по Оглавлению (Contents) - страницы iii - v или по Алфавитному указателю
(Index) - страницы 328 - 335. Прочитайте объяснения и ознакомьтесь с примерами. Затем выполните
предлагаемые упражнения. Сверьте ваши ответы с Ключами к упражнениям (Key to exercises) - страни-
цы 336 - 348*. Если у вас возникают какие-либо затруднения, снова обратитесь к объяснениям и приме-
рам. Затем найдите тест по изучаемой теме в Оглавлении учебно-контрольных тестов (Progress Tests) -
страницы 294 - 296. Выполните тест. Затем сверьте ваши ответы с Ответами к учебно-контрольным
тестам (Answers to Progress Tests) - страницы 348 - 353*.

We should go now.
Modal verbs имеют одну и ту же форму для всех лиц. В третьем лице единственного
числа отсутствует окончание -s.

He should go now. (Not: He shoulds...)
После всех modal verbs (кроме ought) употребляется infinitive без to eg swim, go. После

My sister could talk when she was 15 months old.
Was/were able to также употребляется в этом значении.

сделано в определенной ситуации, необходимо употреблять was/were able to (could не

The manager wasn 't in the office for very long, but we were able to speak to him for a few

Even though I'd hurt my leg, I managed to swim back to the boat/I succeeded in swimming
back to the boat.
Обычно managed to или succeeded in употребляется в том случае, когда действие было
трудно выполнить.

глаголами мышления, например, understand, remember. Could употребляется с этими
глаголами, когда фактически действие происходит в конкретной ситуации.

The passive: general (Страдательный залог: общие положения)

1 Form
Страдательный залог глаголов в различных временных формах образуется с помощью be
(например, is, was, is being, have been) + past participle.
Present simple: am/are/is + past participle
The office is locked every evening.
Present continuous: am/are/is + being + past participle
The house is being painted at the moment.
Past simple: was/were + past participle
My car was stolen last night.
Past continuous: was/were + being + past participle
The bridge was being repaired last week.
Present perfect simple: have/has + been + past participle
Sarah has been invited to the party.
Past perfect simple: had + been + past participle
/ thought that you had been told the news.
Past continuous passives (have/has/had + been being + past participle) употребляется очень
редко.
The past participle of regular verbs ends in -ed eg locked, painted. Irregular verbs have different
past participle forms eg steal —> stolen, tell —> told (CM. 190).
When we add -ed to verbs, there are sometimes changes in spelling eg stop —> stopped. CM.
188.3,4, 6. Относительно произношения -ed см. 187.2.

3 Compare these active and passive sentences:

Active: Лimeone locks the office every evening.

Passive: The office is locked every evening.

Active: S 'omeone has invited Sarah to the party.

Passive: Sarah has been invited to the party.

Обратите внимание, что дополнение глагола в действительном залоге (например, the


office, Sarah) становится подлежащим в страдательном залоге.

Правила выбора времени в страдательном залоге те же, что и в действительном.


Например, если речь идет о том, что находится сейчас в развитии, употребляется present
continuous.

The house is being painted at the moment.

75 Direct and reported speech: introduction
(Прямая и косвенная речь: введение)

Когда необходимо передать то, что кто-то сказал, можно употреблять 'прямую речь' или
'косвенную речь':

В прямой речи передаются точно те же слова, которые сказал говорящий, и употребляют-


ся кавычки ('...' или "...").
Direct speech: Annie said, 'I'm hungry.'
В косвенной речи некоторые слова говорящего изменяются и не употребляются кавычки.
Reported speech: Annie said (that) she was hungry.
or: Annie says (that) she's hungry.
Когда употребляется глагол сообщения в прошедшем времени (например, Annie said),
время в косвенной речи обычно меняется (например, /'/га превращается в прошедшее
время: she was).
Но когда употребляется глагол сообщения в настоящем времени (например, Annie says),
время не претерпевает изменений (например, /'/га остается в настоящем времени: she's).
For reported speech, see 77-80.

76 Say and tell

Обычно после tell для выражения, к кому обращаются, употребляется личное дополнение
(например, Sarah, me, us). Say, как правило, употребляется без личного дополнения.
Compare:

say + something tell + someone + something

/ said I was going home. I told Sarah I was going home.


He says he can speak French. He tells me he can speak French.
Если необходимо поставить личное дополнение с say, употребляется to.
I said to Sarah that I was going home.
В некоторых выражениях tell может употребляться без личного дополнения, например,
tell a story [рассказать историю], tell the time [сказать, который час], tell the truth [сказать
правду], tell a lie [солгать].

'1 Reported statements (Косвенные утверждения)

1 Времена

He said he was going home.


Когда глагол сообщения употребляется в past tense (eg he said, you told me), время в

'I'm going home.' He said he was going home.
'1 want to stop.' You told me you wanted to stop.

Must или не изменяется, или принимает форму past tense (have to) had to.
I must go.' \ He said he must go./He said he had to go.
Когда употребляется past tense глагола сообщения, времена в косвенной речи меняются
не всегда. Если то, что сообщается, представляется истинным в настоящее время, иногда
употребляется то же время, что и у говорящего.
SPEAKER'S WORDS REPORTED SPEECH
'The population of London is around 9 He said that the population of London is
million.' around 9 million.
7 live in Brighton.' She told me that she lives in Brighton.
Но даже когда что-то представляется истинным, время в косвенной речи может изме-
няться.

Местоимения, прилагательные, наречия и др.

a В косвенной речи местоимения (например, /, те) и притяжательные прилагательные


(например, ту, your) часто изменяются.
Compare:
Direct speech: Sue said, 'I'm on holiday with my friend'.

124
77 Reported statements

'I 'II see you tomorrow.' He said he would see me the next day.
Способы изменения этих слов зависят от ситуации. Например, если кто-то вчера
разговаривал и сказал Til see you tomorrow.', то сейчас можно сказать: Не said he would
see me today.
That
That часто употребляют для соединения предложения с косвенной речью с остальным
предложением.

22 Reflexive pronouns (Возвратные местоимения)

The reflexive pronouns are:

SINGULAR PLURAL

himself
3rd person herself themselves
itself

Reflexive pronouns употребляются, когда подлежащее и дополнение предложения одно и


то же.

Обратите внимание: enjoy yourself = хорошо проводите время; help yourself (to something)
= угощаться (чем-то).
Did you enjoy yourself at the circus?
Help yourself to some more coffee.
После предлогов употребляются объектные местоимения, например те, him, вместо
reflexive pronouns, когда очевидно, о чем идет речь. Compare:
I'll take some money with me. (Я не мог взять I'm very angry with myself (Я не мог
деньги с кем-то еще!) сердиться на кого-то еще!)
By myself/by yourself и т.д. может означать 'самостоятельно' или 'без чьей-то помощи'.
/ don't live by myself, I share aflat with two friends.
I can't move this table by myself. It's too heavy.

5 Reflexive pronouns обычно не употребляются после feel, relax или concentrate.


I feel fine. (Not:... feel myself fine.)
/ must try to relax. (Not:... relax myself.)
I can't concentrate. (Not:... concentrate myself.)
Обычно reflexive pronouns не употребляются для выражения действий, которые люди, как
правило, выполняют по отношению к себе, например, wash, shave, dress.
Ken got up. Then he washed, shaved and dressed. (Not:... washed himself, etc.)
Но говорят dry myself/yourselfи т.д., например: / got out of the bath and dried myself.
Reflexive pronouns также употребляются для подчеркивания: 'то лицо, никто другой'.
Nobody helped me build the swimming pool. I built it myself, [сам]
I'm not going to clean your room for you. You clean it yourself! [сам, сами]

предложения. Однако могут также следовать за подлежащим.
The manager himself told me the news.
I myself prefer golf to tennis.
Сравните -selves (например, themselves, ourselves) и each other:

They're looking at themselves. They're looking at each other.

может позаботиться о себе, а я - о себе.) может позаботиться обо мне, а я - о ней.)
One another можно использовать вместо each other.

There's somebody at the front door.
I don't want to do anything this evening.
I can't see anybody outside.

или хотим ответа 'yes', например, в просьбах и предложениях.
Could I have something to eat?
Would you like someone to help you?
Более подробно о различиях между some и any см. 115.

an old woman old women
an old car old cars
Когда существительное употребляется в качестве прилагательного, оно не имеет формы
множественного числа. Compare:

197
126 Form, position and order of adjectives

Некоторые прилагательные, например asleep, alone, alive, awake, afraid, ill, well, могут

asleep, но нельзя сказать an asleep man. Перед существительными употребляются другие
прилагательные, например, sleeping вместо asleep, living вместо alive, frightened вместо
afraid, sick вместо ill и healthy вместо well.
a sleeping man a frightened animal
sick children healthy people
В выражениях измерений прилагательное обычно идет после 'измеряемого'
существительного.
Не 's eighteen years old. I'm 1.80 metres tall.
Order

(например, interesting, beautiful) обычно идут перед 'фактическими' прилагательными
(например, new, blue).
an interesting new film a beautiful blue dress
Когда два и более прилагательных ставятся перед существительным, они обычно
следуют в таком порядке:

size + age + shape + colour + origin + material + purpose + NOUN

вспомогательного глагола (например, be, have, can).

Can't he swim?
Negative questions также образуются с помощью п 't, которое ставится после смыслового
глагола be и have в have got.

Haven't they got any money?
Если имеется два и более вспомогательных глагола, n't ставится после первого.

В present simple и past simple отсутствует вспомогательный глагол, поэтому употребляет-
ся do/does (в present simple) и did (в past simple) перед п 't.
Don't you smoke?
Doesn't she live here any more?
Didn't they go to the cinema?

147 Question tags


(Краткий общий вопрос в конце расчленённого вопроса)

Study the examples. [Рассмотрите примеры].


It's cold today, isn't it?
You haven't seen my keys, have you ?
Question tag представляет собой выражение isn't if? и have you?, которое ставится в конце
утверждения.

228
147 Question tags

Question tags образуются с помощью вспомогательного глагола (например, be, have, can)
+ personal pronoun (например, it, you):
You aren 't listening to me, are you ?
You haven't seen my keys, have you ?
He can swim, can't he?
Question tag имеет тот же вспомогательный глагол, что и в главном предложении.
Если в главном предложении смысловой глагол be, в question tag употребляется be.
It's cold today, isn 't it?
Если в главном предложении имеется have got, в question tag употребляется have.
You haven't got a stamp, have you ?
Если имеется два и более вспомогательных глагола, в question tag используется первый.
Не hasn't been waiting long, has he?
Do/does используется в present simple question tags, a did в past simple question tags.
You don't like football, do you?
Simon lives in London, doesn't he?
You saw the film, didn't you?
Обычно negative question tag употребляется с положительным утверждением, a positive
question tag - с отрицательным. Compare:

It isn't cold today, is it? It's cold today, isn't it?


You don't like football, do you ? You Uke football, don't you ?
He can't swim, can he ? He can swim, can't he ?
Значение question tag зависит от интонации:

Если ставится реальный вопрос, используется восходящая интонация (голос подымается


вверх).
You haven't seen my keys, haxe-you? (= Have you seen my keys?)
Но если есть уверенность в ответе и вопрос ставится, чтобы получить согласие собесед-
ника, используется нисходящая интонация (голос падает вниз).
It's cold today,~mf*t~H? (= It's cold. Don't you agree?)
Negative statement + positive question tag часто употребляется для того, чтобы попросить
кого-то о чем-то, попросить помочь или предоставить информацию.

You couldn 't lend me some money, could you ?


You don't know where Peter lives, do you?

После повелительного наклонения в отрицательной форме употребляется will you?
Don't forget to post my letter, will you?

1148 Reply questions (Ответные вопросы)

Study the examples.


'I'm going to bed now.' 'Are you ? Oh, good night, then.'
'He can't swim.' 'Can't he ? I thought he could.'
Мы часто отвечаем с помощью 'reply questions' - кратких вопросов, образованных из
вспомогательного глагола + personal pronoun, например, Are you? и Can't he?
Эти reply questions не являются настоящими вопросами; они часто лишь
свидетельствуют, что мы слушаем. Они могут выражать интерес, сочувствие, удивление
или гнев, в зависимости от интонации.

В reply questions употребляются те же вспомогательные глаголы, что и в предложении, на


которое мы отвечаем.
I'm going to bed now.' 'Are you ? Oh, good night, then.'
'We've finished.' 'Have you?'
Если предложение содержит смысловой глагол be, то он употребляется и в reply question.
'I'm hungry.' 'Are you ? I'll make you something to eat.'
Если в предложении имеется have got, то и в reply question употребляется have.
'I've got a headache.' 'Oh, have you ? Do you want some aspirin ?'
Если в предложении два и более вспомогательных глагола, то в reply question употребля-
ется первый.
'I've been waiting for an hour.' 'Have you?'
Do/does употребляется в present simple reply questions, a did в past simple reply questions.
7 like football.' 'Do you ?'
'She lives in Brighton.' 'Does she ?'
'We saw the film.' 'Did you?'
Положительные reply questions употребляются для ответа на положительные
утверждения, а отрицательные - на отрицательные. Compare:

'Не can't swim.' 'Can't he?' 'He can swim.' 'Can he?'
'I don't like football.' 'Don't you?' 'Hike football.' 'Do you?'
Можно также отвечать на утвердительное предложение, употребляя отрицательный от-
ветный вопрос с падающей интонацией. Этим выражается эмфатическое согласие.
'It was a fantastic film.' 'Yes, wasTt*t^t? I really enjoyed it.'

231

EXERCISE 148A

'I'm not feeling very well.' 'Neither am I.' (= I, also, am not feeling very well.)

В этой конструкции может также употребляться смысловой глагол be и have в have got.
Т т thirsty.' 'So am I.'
You haven't got any money and neither have I.
Если имеется два и более вспомогательных глагола, то после so и neither употребляется
первый.
'I've been studying.' 'So have I.'
Do/does в present simple, a did в past simple употребляются после so и neither.

152 / think so, I hope so, I expect so, etc


(Я так полагаю, я надеюсь на это, я рассчитываю на это и т.д.)

Study the examples.


'Is she ill?' 'I think so.' (= Я полагаю, что она больна.)
'Do you think the weather will be nice tomorrow?' 'I hope so.' (= Я надеюсь, что погода
будет прекрасной.)
'Do you think you 'II come to the party?' 7 expect so.' (= Я рассчитываю, что приду на
вечеринку.)
So употребляется после таких глаголов, как think, hope, expect, imagine и suppose, с тем,
чтобы избежать повторения того, что было сказано ранее.
So также употребляется таким образом в выражении be afraid.
'Is she seriously ill?' 'I'm afraid so.'
Отрицательную форму с глаголами suppose, imagine и expect можно образовать двумя
способами:

subject + verb + not subject + do not + verb + so

I suppose not. I don't suppose so.


I imagine not. I don't imagine so.
I expect not. I don't expect so.
Hope и be afraid всегда употребляется с ... not (не do not... so).
'Do you think you will be late tonight?' 'I hope not.' (= Я надеюсь, что не опоздаю.)
'Did he pass the exam ?' 'I'm afraid not.' (= Боюсь, он не сдал.)
Обычно think употребляется с do not... so.
'Is she ill?' 7 don't think so.' (= Я не думаю, что она больна.)

8 'Will you have time to go shopping this afternoon?' (No | suppose)
9 'Do you think everything will be all right?' (Yes | expect)
10 'Does he know about the accident yet?' (Yes | imagine)

153 Defining relative clauses with who, that and which


' (Определяющие относительные придаточные предложения с who,
that и which)

I Рассмотрите примеры:
/ spoke to the woman who owns the hotel.
Did you see the letter that came this morning?
Who owns the hotel и that came this morning являются 'defining relative clauses'. В этих
предложениях речь идет о том, какого человека или какой предмет имел в виду
говорящий (например, who owns the hotel определяет, какая женщина; a that came this
morning определяет, какое письмо).

По отношению к людям употребляется who. Compare:


/ spoke to the woman. She owns the hotel. I spoke to the woman who owns the hotel.
The man was very nice. He interviewed me. The man who interviewed me was very nice.
По отношению к предметам употребляется that. Compare:
Did you see the letter? It came this Did you see the letter that came this morning?

The keys have disappeared. They were on The keys that were on this table have
this table. disappeared.
Обратите внимание, что who и that заменяет местоимение.
/ spoke to the woman who owns the hotel. (Not: / spoke to the woman who she owns the hotel.)

237
154 Leaving out who, that and which in defining relative clauses

Which может употребляться вместо that (говоря о предметах) в defining relative clause.
Did you see the letter which came this morning?
The keys which were on this table have disappeared.
В неофициальном стиле возможно употребление that вместо who (говоря о людях).
/ spoke to the woman that owns the hotel.
Обратите внимание, что можно опустить who, that и which, когда они являются
дополнениями в defining relative clauses, например: He's the man (who) we met last night.
CM. 154.

EXERCISE 153 A
Join each pair of sentences using who for people and that for things. Examples:
That's the woman. She works in the post office. 4 They're the people. They offered Sue a job.
That's the woman who works in the post office. 5 The car has now been found. It was stolen.
The man wasn't English. He spoke to us. 6 She's the person. She gives me a lift to work

189 Contractions (Стяжение)

'Стяжение' - это такие краткие формы, как Гт (= I am), you 've (= you have), isn't (= is not)
и don't (= do not).
К стяжению очень часто прибегают в разговорном и неофициальном письменном
английском языке, например, в письмах к друзьям.
При стяжении на письме ставится апостроф (') там, где буква или буквы опускаются.
Гт (= I am; ' = a) you 've (= you have; ' = ha)
isn't (= is not; ' = o) don't (= do not; ' = o)
Ниже приведены наиболее употребительные стяжения:
I'm /aim/ (=1 am) they're /деэ(г)/ (= they are)
I've /aiv/ (= I have) they've /9eiv/ (= they have)
I'll /ail/ (=/ will) they'll /Sell/ (= they will)
I'd /aid/ (= / had or / would) they'd /deid/ (= they had or they would)
you 're /jua(r)/ (= you are) let's /lets/ (= let us)
youlve /ju:v/ (- you have)
isn't /'iznt/(= is not)
you'll /ju:l/ (= you will)
aren 't /dint/ (== are not)
you 'd /ju:d/ (= you had or you would)
wasn't /'woznt/ (== was not)
he's /hi:z/ (= he is or he has) weren't /wa:nt/ (= were not)

hadn't/haednt/f= had not)
it's /its/ (= it is or ithas) can't /ka:nt/ (= cannot)
it'll /ill/ (= it will) couldn 't /'kudnt/ (= could not)
it'd /itad/ C= it had or it would) won't /waunt/ (= will not)
wouldn 't /'wudnt/ (= would not)
we're /wia(r)/ (= we are)
shan 't /faint/ (= shall not)
we've /wi:v/ (= we have)
shouldn't /'Judnt/ (= should not)
we'll /wi:l/ (= we will)

'd может быть had или would
I'd seen the film before. (= I had seen the film before.)

am not сокращается как aren't /dint/ в вопросах, например, Aren't I right?

290
189 Contractions

Обратите внимание, что иногда возможны два отрицательных стяжения. Нельзя, напри-
мер, сказать she isn't или she's not, you aren't или you're not, he won't или he'll not.
Очень часто краткие формы употребляются после личного местоимения, например, Гт,
you 've или в отрицаниях, например, isn 't, don't. Но иногда краткую форму (особенно 's)
можно употреблять после существительного.
Maria's a student. (= Maria is a student.)
My father's got a new car. (= My father has got a new car.)
Краткая форма также может употребляться после вопросительного слова, например,
what, where who и после there, here, that и now.
What's the time? (= What is the time?) There'll be trouble. (= There will be trouble.)
Where's Peter gone? (= Where has Peter gone?) That's right. (= That is right.)
Нельзя употреблять утвердительные краткие формы 's, 've и т.д. в конце предложения
(потому что глагол в конце предложения ударный).
Do you know who she is ? (Not: Do you know who she's?)
'Have you finished?' 'Yes. I have.' (Not: 'Yes, I've.')
Но отрицания isn't, haven't и т.д. могут употребляться в конце предложения.
'Is she English ?' 'No, she isn't.'
You 've finished, but I haven't.

Note
-В 'ненормированном' английском языке (языке, который не считается 'правильным')
ain't /emt/ часто употребляется как сокращенная форма от am not, are not, is not and have
not, has not, например, I ain't hungry. (= / am not hungry.)
-He смешивайте it's (= it is или it has) и its (притяжательная форма от it), например: The cat
ate its food.

Appendix: American English
[Приложение: Американский вариант английского языка]

Грамматические различия между British и American English невелики. Основные различия состоят
в следующем:
а Американцы очень часто употребляют past simple для сообщения 'новостей' в тех случаях, когда
британцы употребляют present perfect (см. 6с).
AMERICAN ENGLISH BRITISH ENGLISH
АМЕРИКАНСКИЙ ВАРИАНТ АНГЛИЙСКОГО БРИТАНСКИЙ ВАРИАНТ АНГЛИЙСКОГО
ЯЗЫКА ЯЗЫКА
Did you hear the news ? Have you heard the news ?
My sister had a baby! My sister has had a baby!
Американцы часто употребляют past simple с just, already и yet в тех случаях, когда британцы
употребляют present perfect (см. 8).
AMERICAN ENGLISH BRITISH ENGLISH
He just went out. He's just gone out.
I already had breakfast. I've already had breakfast.
Did you write the letter yet? Have you written the letter yet?
Американцы часто употребляют have, с do и does в отрицательных формах и вопросах в тех
случаях, когда британцы употребляют have got (см. 33).
AMERICAN ENGLISH BRITISH ENGLISH
/ have a brother. I've got a brother.
He doesn 't have a job. He hasn 't got a job.
Do you have a pen ? Have you got a pen ?
Американский вариант английского языка имеет две формы past participle глагола get: gotten и got;
Британский вариант английского языка имеет только одну: got (см. 190.2).
AMERICAN ENGLISH BRITISH ENGLISH
I've gotten/got a ticket. I've got a ticket.
Американцы часто употребляют infinitive без to после глаголов suggest, insist, recommend и т.д.
(см. 55.1).
I suggested (that) he see the doctor.
They insisted (that) she take the money.
Эта конструкция также употребляется в британском варианте английского языка, особенно, в бо-
лее официальном стиле.
Существуют различия в употреблении некоторых предлогов. Например:
AMERICAN ENGLISH BRITISH ENGLISH
on the weekend at the weekend (CM. 169.1)
Monday throughAo Friday Monday to Friday (CM. 173.2)
differentfrom/than different from/to (CM. 178)
stay home/stay at home stay at home (CM. 168.10)
write somebody/write to somebody write to somebody (CM. 181)
В американском варианте английского языка, если слог не ударный -/ на конце слова обычно не
удваивается-(см. 188.6с).
AMERICAN ENGLISH BRITISH ENGLISH
'traveled 'travelled
g Глаголы burn, dream, lean, leap, learn, smell, spell, spill и spoil обычно правильные в американском
варианте английского языка, например, burned, dreamed, leaned, leaped, learned и т.д. (см. 190.2b).
